Top 15!

#15 - The big Switch 2 game for December, but subtract by three

#14 - Donut Plains has made many appearances in Mario Kart titles, but it originated in this platforming game

#13 - Although owned by Microsoft, this game found its way to the Nintendo Classics service in 2022, and its heroes joined the Smash Bros. roster three years before that

#12 - Take the first word of #14 and add the first word of #15

#11 - Dwight Schrute from The Office once dressed up as a character from this landmark RTS game

14 - Super Mario World

12 - Super Metroid

Exactly!

...James? Pokémon Yellow?

I don't feel that's it, but it's what came to mind.

Meanwhile I fell behind again, oof... well, time to throw in a bunch of hints, and I guess I'm spamming again later on.

#16 - Probably the only game to ever have Sigourney Weaver as a voice actor.
#15 - The latest installment in this 2D series, which was received much better than the latest 3D entry.
#14 - This game introduced us to a region whose capital was revisited in one of this year's best-selling games.
#13 - This game was lambasted pre-release for turning this franchise into a "generic FPS". It's not exactly been a common opinion since.
#12 - In this sidescroller, you must confront many enemies and hardships to defeat the white-haired goddess who rules over everyone's lives.
#11 - In this RPG , you must confront many enemies and hardships to defeat the white-haired goddess who rules over everyone's lives.

My top 50 games as of 2025!
